Personnel at the Army Training Centre in Pirbright have taken part in a special challenge to raise funds for their local NHS trust. After watching the remarkable fundraising efforts of Captain Sir Tom Moore, Corporal Dikendra Gurung decided to organise a doko race. The infamous test forms a key part of the selection criteria for Gurkha recruits in Nepal. Participants are required to carry 15 kilogrammes in a bamboo basket, secured by a headstrap, uphill for five kilometres within 50 minutes.
